2024 Map of Piquett Mountain

About this map

Bitterroot National Forest dominates this high-altitude landscape in Ravalli County, where the topography is defined by the massive crests of the Bitterroot Mountains. This modern data shows a complex network of backcountry access points, including the Piquett Divide Trl and the Jew Mountain Trl, which navigate the steep drainage basins of Piquett Creek and Slate Creek. The map provides a clear look at the glacial geography of the region, featuring high-country tarns like Shelf Lake and Slate Lake tucked beneath peaks such as Piquett Mtn and Wiles Peak. In the southern reaches, the land drops toward the Overwhich Creek valley, where Overwhich Rd provides a rare point of vehicle access amidst the gulches and ridges. This survey is essential for understanding the modern trail systems and watershed divisions that have shaped land management and recreation in this part of Montana.
